Hello,
[I've searched the web and the archives, but couldn't find anything
useful (I'm not sure the terms of my queries were appropriate/efficient)]
My problem is this (I'm using struts 1.2.7):
When someone uses my webapp, some javascript sometimes triggers twice
the same action in a very short amount of time (I mean: two POST
requests are issued that call the same action's execute()) _with
different parameters_.
I noticed that the action sometimes receives the same set of parameters
twice. Further investigation confirms that the form is populated for the
first time, then for the second time and that, only then, the execute()
method is called twice. That is due to thread concurrency, I suppose.
In the RequestProcessor, I noticed there's no synchronization on the
form, in the process() method, that ensures that the form is populated
and then the action executed with the set of parameters it was supposed
to receive.
I did a little modification in RequestProcessor (actually, I extended
it) and came up with:
original code:
--------
ActionForm form = processActionForm(request, response, mapping);
processPopulate(request, response, form, mapping);
...
// Call the Action instance itself
ActionForward forward =
processActionPerform(request, response,
action, form, mapping);
--------
modified code:
--------
ActionForm form = processActionForm(request, response, mapping);
synchronized (form) {
processPopulate(request, response, form, mapping);
...
// Call the Action instance itself
ActionForward forward =
processActionPerform(request, response,
action, form, mapping);
}
--------
but I wonder if that's a good idea.
Am I missing something here? Is there a way to ensure that the action is
called each time with the set of parameters it was supposed to receive?
Thank you for any information!
Best regards,
Arnaud
